I‘m discontinuing my social media use for the foreseeable future and I want to explain why.
I woke up in the new year to discover that some guy on here had saved photos I took on New Year’s Eve and used Grok to remove my clothes. I know this because he showed me.

Just like every year, a friendly PSA:
“Feliz ano nuevo” means “happy new anus.”
“Feliz año nuevo” means “happy new year.”
Wishing folks either one is nice, but make sure you’re using the one you mean.
